drained, moderately coarse textured soils formed in gravelly <br />outwash. This association has good potential for urban use. <br />C. Environmental Conditions <br />The quality and character of the environment are of the utmost <br />importance to the residents of the City. A field survey was conducted <br />in the City to identify those physical features that can be considered as <br />assets and liabilities to Roseville's quality of life. In 2001 the Parks and <br />Recreation Department began a new environmental land plan. <br />Environmental Assets are any predominantly visible feature which is <br />aesthetically pleasing, of a permanent nature, and which contributes to <br />the enhancement of the natural environment. The most obvious of the <br />environmental assets are the several lakes that are located within the <br />City limits. Secondly, the environmental assets include the City and <br />County parks and open space system. In addition, environmental <br />assets include those public and semi-public land uses that add to the <br />quality of life. These uses include the Midland Hills Country Club, the <br />many churches within the City, and the public and private schools. <br />Environmental Liabilities are any predominantly visible features <br />which are aesthetically displeasing, of a permanent or a recurring <br />nature, and which contributes to the degradation of the natural <br />environment. While the City is heavily endowed with environmental <br />assets, the City also possesses environmental liabilities that tend to <br />inhibit the attractiveness of the City. The most dominant physical <br />liabilities include the existing major highways within the City <br />including Interstate 35W and State Highway 36. These major <br />highways are responsible for the creation of noise and air pollution <br />within their immediate environments. Less obvious, but of equal <br />concern, is the surface and soil contamination found in many of the <br />older industrial areas. The City, its responsible property owners, and <br />re-developers continue to clean and reclaim these sites as <br />redevelopment occurs. <br />Roseville Comprehensive Plan — 2001 Update The Land and its People -Page 7 of 24 <br />
